The Man Who Stood Still at Circle Theatre Review
The drama star Mr Louis Mann drew applause in Circle Theatre's The Man Who Stood Still portraying a loving father torn by a daughter's seduction. Mann impressed only modestly, showing restraint lacking in pathos, while Mathilde Cottrelly provided a sincere, feeding role. The production mixed blunt caricature with trite antipathy and offered little drama beyond a glimpse of Mann's potential.
